Hi!  I'm Ash!  

On March 31, 2024, Trans Day of Visibility, I picked up my life and moved from Portland, Oregon to Granada, Spain. I’ve always loved to travel but it’s never enough. I always leave a place wanting more depth of experience and cultural understanding. Moving to an entirely different part of the world was the only way I would even come close to that understanding.

So here I am living in Spain, being just about as visible as one can be. The internet would have you believe that traveling as a queer person is super dangerous, but that’s often not the case. I want to showcase places will be safe and welcoming if you're, you know, different.  Whatever 'different' means to you!  This site is all about feeling safe and having fun regardless of who you are.  Hopefully this will inspire you to get out to see the world and I'd love to help you on your journey.
